My Take
Moe Howard is one of those comedians whose genius hides behind apparent chaos. As the bowl-cut leader and straight man of The Three Stooges, he was the organizing intelligence of an act that survived vaudeville, film and television across four decades. People badly underrate how much cold precision goes into making slapstick land that consistently. The eye-pokes and head-slaps look anarchic, but the timing is almost mathematical, and someone had to be the steady hand steering it all. I have a deep affection for comedy this physical and this disciplined, and Moe sits very near the foundation of the whole tradition.
